LONDON: Injury-plagued Andy Murray declared on Monday that it may not be sensible to expect him to recapture the days after he won three Grand Slam titles.
Murray is on the comeback road again in Queen’s Club in London this week following yet another round of the exercise problems that have bothered him for many decades.
The 34 year old Scot confronts Benoit Paire on Tuesday in the Wimbledon warm-up occasion, which he’s won five times.
It’ll be his first singles match on marijuana for 3 decades.
Asked on Monday when he believed capable of becoming near the kind that took him into the entire world number one position in 2016,” Murray struck a downbeat tone.
“I really feel OK.
I really don’t feel great, however I have been practising nicely during the previous month or so, fairly frequently,” he explained.
“The question mark is clearly if the body consumes and that I can not state with any terrific certainty at this time if that is going to occur or not.
“I’ve been feeling great at various points during the previous fourteen months or so, practised well, felt great going into championships.
Following that, you realize that something has happened.” Murray, now ranked 124th in the world, won the US Open in 2012 and raised the Wimbledon prize in 2013 and 2016.
However, beset by stylish issues and other problems, he’s competed in only a couple of the previous eight Grand Slams.
Even though Murray’s hopes of coming to the very best are evaporating, his older competitions Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal remain in their finest.
Djokovic watched Nadal in four places at a exciting French Open semi-final a week before asserting his 19th Grand Slam title against Stefanos Tsitsipas on Sunday.
Murray, who hasn’t reached a Grand Slam final since 2016, confessed he was envious seeing the 34-year-old Djokovic do struggle with all the 35-year-old Nadal.
“This was an amazing game,” said the Scot.
“You realize, there’s a little that is jealous seeing that, just like I’d like to be playing at these games.
“I’d like to be competing together at semis of slams, I’d like this.
“You are aware, you may still do things to the court out of winning, or competing with all these men.”
